December Citrus Lane Box

Thursday, January 2, 2014

This year I decided to get creative with some of Foster's Christmas presents. I ordered him a subscription to Citrus Lane and wrapped up the first box for him to open on Christmas. I have seen the advertisements for this company on Facebook for a long time now and I would be lying if I said that they hadn't caught my eye more than a few times.

I know you are probably interested about Citrus Lane so here is the scoop!

Loved the festive snowflake box, so cute!

We opened the box up and this was what we saw:

A pretty packed package. It wasn't a mess when I opened it which made me really happy! The note on top opens and has a picture and description of everything in the box and information about the company that makes each product as well. There are also promo codes for purchases from these companies. Great brochure with great info, I love that they include this.

This was a coupon for a book club for Barefoot Books.

I Took the Moon for a Walk- Book

Then there was this book from Barefoot Books. It is a great book. Big, with colorful pictures, good story, and Foster loves it. My favorite part... it smells like a brand new picture book {anyone remember the awesome smell of bearenstein bear books?!}. This book was clearly specially picked for Foster's box because it is about a boy which is something that you inform them of for your box and it is to help toddlers not be afraid of the dark. Great pick Citrus Lane!

Handprint Art Kit- Craft

This is awesome. It comes with all the items that you need for the craft inside the package. The canvas is big enough that you can do two handprints; both hands, mom & little, dad & little, or siblings. The instructions even tell you how to erase it and start over if you make a mistake {anyone who has a kid knows that a handprint with a baby or toddler is NOT so easy}. I think that I am going to use this to do a themed handprint, like turn his handprint into an animal! So excited to use this.

Snuggly Lotion- Body Product

The company that makes this specializes in organic products that are safe for babies and good for the planet, does it get any better than that?! This came at just the right time because it has been so cold here in Ohio so Foster has had some very chapped skin on his cheeks and hands. This lotions is duper moisturizing and nourishing. It is concentrated so I only have to use a little bit at a time and it doesn't leave him greasy, thank goodness because he doesn't like that!

Chunky Puzzle- Toy

Both Mommy and Foster's eyes lit up when we saw a Melissa & Doug product in the box. There is no toy company that we love more than Melissa & Doug in this house, that I can promise you. This puzzle is adorable and fun. Foster is really just starting to actually use puzzles as they are meant to be used so this will get plenty of play time.

Overall this box ROCKED! Foster loved this, Mommy and Daddy loved this, heck my dog {Bella} would probably love it if I let her get at these items to check them out.
